With Tyler Ivey being promoted to the Astros, Robel Garcia has been optioned until further notice.

Chandler Rome of the Houston Chronicle reported earlier this week that Tyler Ivey would be making his major league debut on Friday against the Texas Rangers. The Houston Astros minor-leaguer is from the DFW area and grew up a fan of the major league team of North Texas.

While being a hometown kid facing favorite team from his childhood, Ivey was bound to make his debut at some point this season.
